Domain Deflect #app just launched #IOS

Domain deflect is a new app available for iOS, which allows you use a custom domain name on an existing website that you do not host – for example, it’s a free website provider, and they want you to pay to connect your own domain instead of using their freely allocated subdomain.

There are other applications too, like if you just don’t have full access to the webserver that is hosting your website – like many shared hosting environments may limit the number of domains you use, or want to charge extra for this.

Or simply, you don’t have the will or desire to figure out how to configure your Linux server via some archaic command line interface, but your website is running on the wrong domain name.

It’s SEO friendly, and this isn’t a 301 redirect, or cloak, it’s more akin to the CDN type systems employed by Amazon Cloudfront, although not geo-redundant.
